The Board of Directors of the Cabell Foundation, based in Richmond, Virginia, has approved a $200,000 grant to the Tangier Island Health Foundation. Half of this amount will help with equipment needs. An additional grant of $100,000 will be made pending a one-to-one match for construction of the new health clinic.
“With this wonderful donation, the completion of our state matching grant, and the recent pledge from the Campbell Memorial Presbyterian Church in Weems, we are now almost three-quarters of the way toward our goal of $1.25 million for constructing and equipping the clinic,” said Foundation Chairman Jimmie Carter.
The Cabell Foundation was established in 1957 by Mr. and Mrs. Robert G. Cabell, III of Richmond, Virginia. Grants are normally made on a challenge or matching basis for capital projects in the areas of arts and culture, community development, higher education, historic preservation, and social services and welfare.
